- Installs a network between 2 Amigas
- .description
- ProNET is a hardware/software combination that installs a small network
- between two and NOT more Amigas. This can be used to exchange data from
- both Amiga's devices. The difference between ParNet, written by Matthew
- Dillon and others, and ProNET is that you can mount the other Amiga's
- devices as if they were present on this machine, that means you don't have
- to access the other 'DF0:' indirectly by using 'NET:df0/...' but you can
- mount it as e.g. 'DF2:' on this Amiga. The other device is emulated
- PERFECTLY, so that you won't notice that it exists on the other machine in
- fact - You can e.g. access a disk in the other 'DF0:' by it's name instead
- of having to use 'DF2:', then you can get full information about the status
- (% full etc.) - just like as it was a real device in your first Amiga.
- Of course there are extra programs supplied known from ParNET, with which
- you can start commands on the other Amiga or just talk between them.
- Full developer information is available for programmers that want to code
- extra tools using the pronet.device.

- .requirements
- The software should work on any Amiga, but it doesn't. The
- 'pronet-handler' makes some problems with Kickstart 1.3, but all the other
- programs run on OS1.3 ! But that's OK, because I don't need the handler on
- my A500 :-)
